Default Pros/Cons

What are the advantages and disadvantages of Integra's being front wheel drive? I know I can drive in snow and wet weather amazingly well, while my brothers' 2001 Mustang GT is standing in the garage for whenever it's good weather again... but what else?
Is it faster than RWD or what? Name anything. I'm just curious. Thx.

1. I went form st*ngs to Tegs this year
2. when in a turn and your *** end comes around you keep your foot planted in a FWD car, as for a RWD you lift your foot off the gas
3. You can make FWD fast with LSD (limited slip), but IMO you can not make them as fast as RWD, just take drag racing ( I know said Drag racing ) majority of the fast cars are RWD, even in the Import scene, also the engines play a role
4. Insurance could be cheaper on FWD vs. RWD
5. IMO the driving charactersistics are very different between FWD vs RWD

just a few things to get you thinking, I am no expert, but i hope that helps

Kinda stupid reason but I think burnouts like better on front wheel drive, especially when they creep through it.

FWD burnouts look funny
RWD look badass
AWD traction.
